I have a Timex watch with rubber black band. I never take it off. I sleep and shower with it on. Now the band smells. Any ideas on how to treat it? Bleach?
Beside the point, but the reason I never take off the watch is that the bands or attaching posts always rip apart after about a few years. I have half a dozen functioning Timex and nike watches that I can't wear because the bands or posts don't work. I have replaced the bands when I could, but then the posts rip. I'm not that tough on watches but taking them on and off everyday day was too much for them to handle. Last year I read on here a suggestion to never remove the watch to prevent the bands from ripping. That worked but now my band stinks.
